Teacher - Reading Interventionist

Literacy Interventionist Overview

The Literacy Interventionist assists students who have been identified as at-risk with literacy intervention to provide a continuum of support and help them get on grade level. The interventionist utilizes district-approved interventions to deliver lesson plans, evaluate and assess student performance. The interventionist meets with teachers, interprets student progress, and informs parents/guardians about student strengths, weaknesses, and progress. Lastly, the interventionist collaborates with identified teachers who share the at-risk students served and develops a transition plan between the intervention classroom and the regular classroom.
